Eighth District Congressman Larry Bucshon, M.D. posted the following statement mourning the loss of former Indiana Governor Edgar Whitcomb to his Facebook page: 

“Governor Ed Whitcomb was truly a remarkable man. He bravely served our country during WWII and was a committed public servant to the Hoosier state as governor. I recently read his book ‘Escape from Corregidor’. It was an inspiring tale about his courage, bravery, and experience escaping capture in WWII. I'm saddened to hear of his passing and join all Hoosiers in mourning the loss of a true American hero.”
